‘WTF is this?’: Strange light filmed flying over Sydney’s west

Could the truth be out there … at Liverpool? A mysterious light was seen performing a strange aerial manoeuvre, a week after a report about Unexplained Aerial Phenomena - A.K.A UFOS | WATCH

A Sydney woman has captured footage of an unidentified object performing a bizarre flying manoeuvre over Sydney‘s west leaving residents wondering if the truth is out there … hovering above Liverpool.

Tanya was sitting on her Liverpool balcony on Wednesday evening when she spotted what appeared to be a falling star and took out her phone to film its path across the sky.

But her wonder turned to shock when the bright object, which appeared to have a streaking tail, slowed down mid flight.

The video appears to show the object jetting off in another direction after stopping in the sky before it vanishes from view.

“I was having my tea and thought what the f*** is this?,” Tanya told The Daily Telegraph.

“I was nervous but a bit curious.”

Liverpool is beneath some flight paths to Sydney airport, but Tanya said she had never seen anything move like the object on Wednesday evening.

Flight trackers do not show any helicopters or other registered aircraft in that section of the sky about 8.20pm on Wednesday, when the video was shot.

Award-winning Australian investigative reporter Ross Coulthart has become one of the world‘s most prominent voices in the field of Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAPs) and viewed the video.

He told The Daily Telegraph the object in the video appeared to be moving much faster than a drone, and its manoeuvres were inconsistent with floating lanterns or balloons.

But without higher resolution imagery and other witnesses, he said, it was impossible to rule out drones or anything else.

“The difficulty is that it’s impossible to reach any definitive conclusion based on a video alone,” Mr Coulthart said.

Last week the US authority dealing with unidentified sightings, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (DNI) said it was sifting through 510 reports with most data coming from the US Navy.

The DNI, in 2021, released its first major report about UAPs which reached similar conclusions to Mr Coulthart; the lack of firm evidence prevents firm conclusions.

However, the DNI also concluded, some of the incidents it was reviewing showed objects with “unusual flight characteristics”.

DNI said there were five categories of sightings; airborne clutter like balloons and birds, natural atmospheric events like ice crystals and clouds, secret US technology, “foreign adversary” technology such as spy craft and the tantalising ”other” for everything else unexplained.

No matter what the UAP‘s are, the authority concluded, sightings are going up.

“The observed increase in the UAP reporting rate is partially due to a better understanding of the possible threats that UAP may represent, either as safety of flight hazards or as potential adversary collection platforms, and partially due to reduced stigma surrounding UAP reporting.”
